Implementation: This RWLO should be
used in the classroom to demonstrate the creation of charts and
graphs. Students must work individually to properly develop the
skills needed to create a chart and graph. Students may use the
Excel Resources found in the Supplementary Resources.

Direct students to develop chart
and bar graph using the data provided above.

Chart and Graph should look like this:

Students will now reflect on:

How their county's ethnicity compare to
the numbers of the US and their state? Were they surprised
by the results?

Have the students compare their
results with their memories of what schools looked like
when they were a student. If
the schools of today are significantly different from the
ones they remember, what will they need to do to prepare
themselves for the diversity they are likely to encounter
in the classroom?
